I also take mine the 18th. I've been studying since May 22nd, took the in person Kaplan (which I thought was a waste), then watched content videos & reading the book. Anything I didn't remember I made flashcards for. Then I took the appropriate qbank questions. I still have q7 to do, which I plan on doing 3 days before the test, and also finish up the section on psych. I took the readiness test in class, before I had studied all the content... not sure how accurate that is.

I too have reached my point where I'm tried of studying. I'm not sure I feel confident, but I'm hoping Kaplan's questions are a bit harder than NCLEX.

Good luck! Go in there as calm as possible and have the attitude of "let me show you what I know!"

what were getting on your question trainers and what is your % on the q bank?

On the trainers I was getting in the low 60s, but I made the mistake of taking them before I had done any substantial studying. On qt6 I had a 64. My qbank is around 68 right now with about 15% to go. How about you?

Wishing you good luck.

my qbank is only 63% and about less than 20% to go. here are my QT scores:

1 - 63

2 - 69

3 - 72

4 - 67

5 - 60

6 - 65

7 - 70

i will do my readiness test on the weekend, i have no idea if i am ready or not but when i scheduled my exam i felt relieved? maybe because i have studying too long for this test...its my first time..

Those scores look good to me! I've noticed that if i had read some of the questions more carefully I wouldnt have made such silly mistakes! At least that is an easy fix for me... slow down and concentrate more.

Good luck!!!

oh my...my readiness test was 69%. i dont know how i should feel on this. i am testing in 2 days. i was just answering the questions like i just wanted to get over with it already. people have been praying for me for this exam. i am just a bit happy because my pharma is 80%, the little mosby book with illustrations has helped me i think esp with the side effects and the specific teachings with drugs. but my reduction of risk potential has gone down, i think i should focus on that more, reread that chapter again on the course book. anyway i told myself i will stop studying 36 hours before the exam. i have also been relaxing and taking days off before the exam, tallking with friends, praying, going to church and trying to keep positive energy around me. i hope i pass...

Took qtrainer 7 yesterday and got a 70%. At this point I finished all of the qbank and I'm going over the qt7 answers. I plan on looking over meds today and flipping through flashcards tomorrow. Really, I am not stressing so much anymore because I know I'll never be ready.
